This warranty policy applies to wood-burning products identified
by Jøtul and Scan trade names, as set forth below.
A. Cast Iron, Enamel, and Steel Components:
Jøtul North America Inc. (JØTUL) warrants, to the original retail
purchaser, that those components of the Jøtul or Scan Stove
or Fireplace specified above will be free of defects in material
and workmanship for a period of five (5) years from the date of

to the terms, exclusions, and limitations set forth in the following
text
JØTUL will repair or replace (including parts & labor), at its
option, any of the above components determined by JØTUL to be
covered by this warranty. You must, at your own expense, arrange
to deliver or ship the component to an authorized Jøtul or Scan
dealer and arrange for pickup or delivery of the component after
repairs have been made. If, upon inspection, JØTUL determines
that the component is covered by this warranty, the repair or
replacement will be made as set forth above. This warranty is
not transferable and is extended only to, and is solely for the
benefit of, the original retail purchaser of the Jøtul or Scan Stove
or Fireplace. This paragraph sets forth the sole remedy available
under this warranty in the event of any defect in the Jøtul or Scan
Stove or Fireplace.
The warranty period for any replaced component will be the
remaining unexpired portion of the warranty period for the
original component.
Please retain your dated sales receipt in your records as proof of
purchase.
EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS
NOTICE: This warranty is void if installation or service is performed
by someone other than an authorized installer or service agency,
or if installation is not in conformance with the installation and
operating instructions contained in this owners manual or local
and/or national fire and building regulations. A listing of local
authorized installers, service agencies and gas suppliers can be
obtained from the National Fireplace Institute at http://www.
nficertified.org/.
This warranty does not cover the following:
1) Repair or replacement of parts that are subject to normal
wear and tear during the warranty period or to parts that may
require replacement in connection with normal maintenance.
These parts include paint, gaskets, burn plates, baffles, air
manifolds, firebricks, fire grates, or glass (glass is only war-
ranted against thermal breakage).
2) Damage due to incorrect installations not in conformance
with the installation instructions contained in this owners
manual or local and/or national fire and building regulations.
3) Damage, including damage to enamel surfaces, caused by
improper operation, over-firing, and/or misuse. Improper
operation, such as burning the stove with the ash door open,
can damage the stove. Over-firing occurs when any part of the
stove glows red. Over-firing can also be identified by warped
plates, rust-colored cast iron, paint pigment that has turned
dusty white, or bubbling, cracking and discoloration of the
enamel finish. Misuse includes, without limitation, use that is
not in conformance with the operating instructions contained
in this owners manual.
4) Damage due to service performed by an installer or service
agency, unless otherwise agreed to in writing by JØTUL.
5) Damage caused by unauthorized modification, use or repair.
6) Costs incurred by travel time and/or loss of service.
7) Labor or other costs associated with the repair of components
beyond the warranty period.
8) Damage incurred while the Jøtul or Scan Stove or Fireplace is in
transit.
IN NO EVENT SHALL JØTUL, ITS PARENT COMPANY, SHAREHOLDERS,
AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES
BE LIABLE OR RESPONSIBLE TO YOU FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT,
INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR OTHER SIMILAR
DAMAGES, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOST PROFITS, LOST
SALES, INJURY TO PERSON OR PROPERTY, OR DAMAGES TO A
STRUCTURE OR ITS CONTENTS, ARISING UNDER ANY THEORY OF
LAW WHATSOEVER. ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES, INCLUDING THE
IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR OTHERWISE, ARE LIMITED IN DURATION
TO THE LENGTH OF THIS WRITTEN WARRANTY. EXCEPT AS
EXPRESSLY SET FORTH HEREIN, JØTUL MAKES NO ORAL, WRITTEN
OR OTHER WARRANTY WITH RESPECT TO JØTUL OR SCAN STOVES
OR FIREPLACES.
Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental
or consequential damages, or limitations on the length of implied
warranties. Therefore, the above exclusions or limitations may not
apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you
may have other rights, which vary from state to state.
JØTUL reserves the right to discontinue, modify or change the
materials used to produce the Jøtul or Scan Stove or Fireplace.
JØTUL shall have the right to replace any defective component
with substitute components determined by JØTUL to be of
substantially equal quality and price.
The dollar value of JØTULs liability for breach of this warranty
shall be limited exclusively to the cost of furnishing a replacement
component. JØTUL shall not in any event be liable for the cost
of labor expended by others in connection with any defective
component. Any costs or expenses beyond those expressly
assumed by JØTUL under the terms of this warranty shall be the
sole responsibility of the owner(s) of the Jøtul or Scan Stove or
Fireplace.
No dealer, distributor, or other person is authorized to modify,
augment, or extend this limited warranty on behalf of JØTUL.
NO MODIFICATION OR CHANGE TO THIS WARRANTY WILL
BE EFFECTIVE UNLESS IT IS MADE IN A WRITTEN DOCUMENT
MANUALLY SIGNED BY AN AUTHORIZED OFFICER OF JØTUL.
An authorized installer may have been provided with certain
information related particularly to the Jøtul or Scan Stove or
Fireplace; however, no authorized installer or other person who
may service the appliance is an agent of JØTUL. No inference
should be made that JØTUL has tested, certified, or otherwise
pronounced any person as qualified to install or service the
appliance. JØTUL shall not be liable or otherwise responsible for
any error or omission by a person installing or servicing a Jøtul or
Scan Stove or Fireplace.
If you believe your Jøtul or Scan Stove or Fireplace is defective,
you should contact your nearest authorized Jøtul or Scan dealer,
who will process a warranty claim. IN ORDER TO QUALIFY FOR
WARRANTY COVERAGE, JØTUL MUST RECEIVE NOTICE OF A
POSSIBLE DEFECT WITHIN SIXTY (60) DAYS OF THE DATE THE
DEFECT IS FIRST DISCOVERED, OR REASONABLY COULD HAVE BEEN
DISCOVERED.
